I've been trying to deal with my whiteheads and ended up squeezing my nose really hard. Now, a couple of days later, I've got these broken capillaries and pigmented skin. What topical creams or treatments would you suggest to help with this?

I've been noticing that my complexion has become really dull and dark recently. I used to have a pretty fair complexion, but ever since I started my weight loss journey and lost about 8 kgs by going to the gym regularly, it's like my skin has been affected negatively. I look pale and dull and have lost that bright glow. Can you suggest anything for this? Oh, and I should mention my skin is oily, prone to acne, and also quite sensitive.

To help improve your skin tone and regain the glow, you can try using a topical cream containing Vitamin C and Niacinamide. These ingredients can help brighten the skin and even out the complexion. Additionally, using a sunscreen with at least SPF 30 daily can protect your skin from further damage and darkening. For your oily and acne-prone skin, you can use a gentle cleanser containing salicylic acid to help control oil production and prevent breakouts.

Ive noticed this dark to brown patch right next to the meatus for around three months, and I can't help but worry. I have this maniac disorder that makes me check my penis a lot, like 8 to 10 times a day, because I'm paranoid about any unusual reactions. Doing this before once caused me to get balanitis. Now, Im freaking out that this brown patch might be related to those habits. Initially, I thought it might be a vein left behind, but now it doesn't seem like that. An online doctor mentioned it could be melanosis. Could this possibly be skin cancer, like melanoma, or am I overthinking this? Can checking and friction really turn that areas skin color to brown or tan?

I have several sebaceous cysts on my scrotum and want to know if there are non-surgical treatment options. Would homeopathy work for this, or should I see an allopathic doctor? If so, which specialist is best a urologist or dermatologist?

Sebaceous cysts on the scrotum are usually benign and may not require treatment unless they become painful or infected. Non-surgical options are limited, and homeopathy lacks strong evidence for effectiveness. It’s best to consult a dermatologist first, as they specialize in skin conditions and can guide you on management or refer to a urologist if needed.
